If his seventeen years of experience has taught Craig Lawton only one thing, it's this:
Life is too damn precious to throw away...
It's like, you know those dreams?"
Performing on a stage to a full audience?
When you're in the spotlight, and you look down-
And you realise you're completely naked?
Caught off-guard without a script.
No lines. No cues. No curtain-call.
That's me. All the time.
Ever since I was caught out and exposed.
Betrayed. Shamed. Ruined.
By someone I should never have trusted.
I made a single mistake, and it cost me everything.
My school, my friends, and my freedom.
Mum wouldn't look at me.
Dad took control of me.
I flipped the page and started fresh.
But still, that wasn't enough.
There's nothing I can do now that'd ever be enough.
It's at rock bottom that Sebastian Davis finds me.
I'm his worst nightmare.
He's my best hope.
The ground has not been steady beneath my feet for so long,
I've forgotten how it feels.
And no matter how hard he refuses,
It seems that Sebastian has been fated to remind me.

A TASTE OF CANDY POISON
A NOT SO INNOCENT 'NERD' SEBASTIAN FERNANDEZ is known as the "nerd" at school though he's not really one. Sure, he's smart, but he hates being called that, especially since he doesn't even wear "nerdy" clothes or glasses. His twin once told him that he looks better in simple yet stylish outfits, and well, he followed that advice. But Sebastian, the so-called "nerd," has a secret. He's gay. And not just gay, he's been in love with one and only KYLLE WINSTON for a long time now. Everything changes when Sebastian is suddenly drugged and raped by his own best friend, MARK ANTHONY DESMOND. For most people, that would've been the end of a friendship, something unforgivable. But in Sebastian's case... he never reported it. He never even got angry. Crazy, right? As if destiny itself was toying with him, Sebastian keeps crossing paths with new people, including ARKIE LEWIS AUGUSTINE, a persistent stalker who eventually forces him to be his boyfriend. So, what will happen to Sebastian now? Will he let himself be manipulated again, or finally break free from the toxic people around him? _________________________________ "We're all just meant to meet each other but was never meant for each other" ________________________________ ♥ PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME ♥WILL DEFINITELY RE EDIT EVERYTHING AFTER I FINISHED THIS BOOK This book might contains some; •Error(yeah since English is not my first language so forgive me and correct me if I'm wrong) •SMUT(yeah I know what you're thinking,but don't report me, I'm begging hehe) •Strong Languages(I mean,some curses like 'fuck','shit',or something like that) •Angst •Cringe(hehe,yeah) •LGBTQ+ •GAY(BL)
Loving the Player - BxB
Three simple words, and yet they mean so much. The words that everyone dreams of hearing, yet dread uttering. It's funny, isn't it, that a few months ago I had heard the same the words, and since then my whole world has turned upside down and inside out. Life is unpredictable, I still don't understand how psychics do it. But they're probably all frauds anyway. I've never been to one, ever. It goes against my rule of code. Jamie Williams never trusts people with his fortune. That was rule number 1 in my rule book. My admittedly rather lengthy rule book. Long enough to suffice as the constitution of a new empire. Yeah. My life was pretty messed up. But over the last few months, there have been a few changes, for better or for worse, I will never know. But all I know is I need a place to vent out all my anger, frustration and maybe even a small hint of happiness. Maybe this book will be the place. If you aren't a good listener, I suggest you to place this book down under the loose floorboard in your bedroom and carry on with your life. If you are, well, you still have an option. Take it or leave it. But I promise you, my life's story is much more complex than you would have ever imagined.
Kiss, Marry, Kill
[MxMxMxMxM] ~ Charlie Hewitt has a secret: his past is not what it seems.

But living fearlessly is easier said than done, especially when you've lived your entire life with fear. Second-guessing every breath, every word, every touch. But the first step to recovery is admitting there's a problem. Charlie clings to the belief that that's all it will take to put him on the right path. But will it?

Always light the candles
We are too drunk and he is too close and even though we are in a room full of people, we are too alone. -------------------------- Notes: This fan fiction is dedicated to people who have experienced loss, people who were bullied, who struggled with their sexuality and or their race. People who use humour as their coping mechanism. People who feel like outcasts and freaks. People who fell in love with their best friends. You are not alone. You are Albus. And this is our story. It is also dedicated to grief, for showing me the true price for love. And most importantly dedicated to my one and only best friend. This story would not have seen the light of day, had our paths not diverged and our friendship not quietly scattered to the winds. In the closing of chapters, I made sure that the echo of our promises that we once held were not just words, but something truly heard. I will never not think of you during storms. Make sure to leave your thoughts and enjoy ;) This story can be also found on Ao3.Concluida
(bxb) Siren Song of a Savior (Siren x Human)
I had always been taught that humans were cruel creatures with the intent of dominating the Earth. I never thought I'd meet one, let alone form an attachment. "Stay. Please, Collin. I don't want you to go back." He bites his lip, his flat, human teeth digging into the soft flesh. His crystal blue eyes rake over my figure before he entwines his fingers with mine. He nods. I pull our hands to my mouth. "Thank Poseidon. I don't know what I'd do if you left," I murmur. A small, breathtaking smile graces his lips. This quiet, beautiful boy might just be mine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Collin has been ridiculed his whole life because he doesn't speak. Fueled by his traumatic past, he can't bring himself to open his mouth and say a word. One night, after years of ignorance, he'd been invited to a party on the beach. He thought it was the opportunity of his life... that is, until they tied him to a rock to die with the fish. Finn has always been the outcast, the siren that wouldn't eat human flesh. He was always fascinated by the creatures so similar to him that roam on the land. So when he finds the drowning body of a boy, he can't resist the urge to drag him from the water and nurse him to health. That is, until he finds that he is losing his heart to the human. A vicious fantasy romance between land and sea, human and siren. *WARNING* This book is mature, and some explicit scenes are intended for those of 18+ years of age. Be aware of sexual content and foul language.Concluida
Shell Of A Man
"I guess just spending time with some people fixes everything." Carrying the burdens of his past was Jason Smith. Numb. Emotionless. After all those years, what remained was just a shell of a human being. Dragging his life, one day at a time, because of the promises he made to his mother. Carrying the guilt of being the sole survivor of an accident was Raymond Holt. But, when life gave him a second chance to be alive, he accepted it with open arms. Burying the guilt deep inside, he lived his life to the fullest. He was quite the ray of sunshine. When the two guys first met at the NYU Law School, differences occurred, but eventually, they fell for each other. But, college love is young love, and it doesn't always withstand the hardships of life. Being oblivious to what they had found with each other broke their hearts, and they walked their separate ways. Years later, when they cross paths again, the circumstances are against them. Will they be able to overcome their differences? Will they be able to correct their mistakes and make up for the lost time? Most importantly, will they be able to move on from what transpired all those years ago? Read to find out. A/N: I don't know shit about the law. This is everything that I learned by watching Suits and How To Get Away With Murder. Correct me wherever needed. :)Concluida
Tainted Wings
"Why are you so fucking scared of the truth?" He seethed. The truth. I slowly brought my hands up to his face and kissed him. I kissed him with a desperation akin to that of defying death. This is the closest to the truth you will ever get. I needed this. For the first time in my life i found myself wanting someone, needing someone. I needed his words, i needed his cruelty, i needed his insults, i needed every bit of him. **************************************************** A fracture in his facade.

The schools new player, Romen Abarra, all he's ever known was alcohol, flirting and running from brutal memories. If only they knew why he left home. What started out as flirting and banters between the unlikely pair turns into something consuming, dangerous and unrelenting love in the chaos of it all. #2 fuckboy #1 rich //15/10/2025
Oh How Times Have Changed
Eighteen. It's that time in your life that's nothing if not subjunctive: the mood you use when something might or might not have happened. It's a time that's full of change. Leaving school. Going to University. Leaving home. Saying goodbye to past people. Welcoming new people. Everything becomes different all at once. Parts are hard. Parts are easy. All of it: unavoidable. *** Approaching the end of his final year of education, Andy Williams feels lost. Life feels directionless and he craves something that he's not sure even exists. Going through the motions of life with no passion left to give feels numbing until he meets a friend that shows him there's light at the end of the tunnel.Concluida
